Dear Owego Apalachin School Community,
We’re excited to announce a wonderful opportunity to spread some holiday cheer! Our amazing staff at the OA Transportation Department has stepped up to support the Toys for Tots initiative, helping bring joy to Tioga County children this holiday season.
To make this effort a success, we invite you to donate new, unwrapped toys through November 22, 2024. Collection boxes have been placed in the main lobby of each school building and the Transportation Office.
The Transportation Department Toys for Tots initiative has been very successful over the past years because of your generosity. Let’s keep the momentum going this year and make a difference in the lives of even more children in our community!
Thank you for helping us brighten the holidays for those in need.
